Hi all - I had the chance to drop in on the Harvard Tuba this past week, to see its recently upgraded home in the Harvard Band Room. Details and additional photos are in my most recent blog post:

We're "liking" the picture of you, much more than of the tuba, fwiw.

Because . . . ? Is it that I'm sporting a t-shirt of my alma mater, which has more national championships in football than any other B1G school?!

No, my ‘thank’ was for the tuba.
Just kidding. I always enjoy reading the results of your research, so you must be a semi-likeable guy.

Had an opportunity to see it in its corner in the before times. It was on a block of wood (presumably with a hole for the ball?) in the corner just clearingthe ceiling. Really tempted to ask to try and play it, but i behaved myself as athe guest that i was. Sigh. Every now and then i regret my manners... What few i possess.
I wonder if they would be more or less likely to let me try it now that it is clean and functional?
(Question will probably remain hypothetical for the foreseeable future...)
